Psalm 111_Burgess, for August 18, 2024

Let us move through the remaining summer days
praising the Lord together

Let us view creation with eyes of gratitude
knowing whence it has come

Above and below, let us praise God!

You give us our daily bread, Holy One,
enough for the day and that is all we need

You keep your covenant with us
this day and every day

Above and below, let us praise God! 

We know your precepts, O God of power,
and we will follow them

So that all of us may share
in your bounty

Above and below, let us praise God!

If we follow your laws and listen to your words
there will never be too  much for some and too little for others

Above and below, let us praise God!
